Electrolux Professional Deep Fat Fryer 371162 – 900XP, 700XP 1 Well Freestanding El. Fryer 14 liter

Four hundred millimetres of line space and a 730 mm depth give the 371162 fryer a compact footprint in a 900XP suite. Within that body, the well takes from 12 litres minimum to 14 litres maximum of oil, controlled through an 8.7 kW electric load and a thermostat band from 105 to 185 °C.

The 380-400 V/3 ph/50/60 Hz supply aligns with a typical 400 V three‑phase galley distribution, so the unit can be planned into refits or extensions without reworking the board around a special voltage. At 850 mm external height it joins level with other 900XP freestanding modules, keeping the worktop continuous rather than stepped. That matters where pans and baskets move sideways across the line.

The usable well dimensions are 240 mm in width, 380 mm in depth and 285 mm in height. In practice that volume and surface area suit side orders, focused menu items or a secondary frying role in a larger hot line rather than acting as the only fryer on a vessel with heavy fried production. Stainless steel splash guards keep the oil inside this envelope, limiting the risk of hot oil on the deck plates when the ship moves.

The thermostat range starting at 105 °C allows the oil to sit at a lower holding temperature between services, then be taken up to the 185 °C maximum for active frying. That gives the operator control over recovery and standby conditions without pushing the oil beyond the stated control span. Net weight is 35 kg, which keeps installation manageable while still giving a stable base once the unit is fixed down.

Build and control

• IPX4 rated against water ingress
• Scotch-Brite finished exterior panels
• Flush-fitting side edges for gap-free installation
• Stainless steel splash guards
• Low-water safety thermostat
• Drain to a removable collection tray

The IPX4 waterproof index and Scotch‑Brite finished exterior panels support routine washdown: the exterior sheds water and soil, and ingress protection is matched to hose cleaning rather than wipe‑down only. Flush‑fitting side edges let the fryer butt directly against neighbouring 900XP or 700XP modules so there are no narrow gaps to trap crumbs and oil, which is important for both hygiene and USPH‑style inspections.

The low‑water safety thermostat intervenes if the oil level drops below the safe point, protecting the well from dry‑firing when baskets are turned around quickly. Draining into a removable collection tray simplifies oil changes in a tight galley front where there is no clear space to position loose containers under the machine; the tray can be capped and moved to the waste handling point without spillage across the deck.

This fryer is the right choice where a single 14 litre well meets the service requirement, such as a crew mess, a small ferry galley or as a dedicated fryer for one product in a mixed battery. It is the wrong choice where the fry section carries sustained peak loads across multiple services, because in that case a larger battery of fryers from the same platform should be specified to avoid running one small well at its limit all day.
